With many recent breakthroughs, fusion is now seen as very viable and just needs funding to finish it off. The last of the hard problems are solved and they just need to pull it all together and "adjust for rounding errors", so to speak.

ITER won't become fully operational until 2035 and that is just for conducting experiments. We are still decades from commercial fusion power plants.
